addicted to computer

hi how can i tear myself away from this machine? usually my time here can be classified as unproductive!! i relate better to a machine than to people. in a social setting i often fade into the woodwork. i observe rather than participate. often i experience a social phobia. i want to escape from the situation. i become stressed. i blurt out stupid sentences. i am too loud. on a discussion board such as this one, people pay some attention to me. i appreciate that. to some degreee, i apologize for my continuous flow of dialogue. i should run out of things to say at some point. So perhaps i find the computer to be a safe place, an interesting place where i can escape from people and problems...any comments.
